It doesn't make any noise at 3psi, but when we tried to increase it, it made a really sick sounding noise.
If your SC is actually bad, this would be the FIRST mechanical breakdown of an Eaton M62 or M90 that I've seen.
Be absolutely sure before you spend hundreds of dollars. A second or third opinion would be great.

I'm going to order a BCS tomorrow....
Anyone got the PN for the BCS?
When I phoned on Friday to order one, they asked for the last few digits of my VIN

Ok... I got that part....
My friend at GM said not to get the part too dirty, and if it doesn't work I could return it.
But now I'm stuck.... what do I do now?
I'm not very good under the hood.
EDIT/UPDATE
Got Boost??? I do
Replaced the BCS with some help from ppl online... many thanks.
Took her for a spin.. noticed the improvement before I left the parking lot.
